Flower Friday: Oddballs of the Flower World We’re all used to seeing daises, roses, the orchids in the grocery store, and flowers that look like those, but, occasionally, I run across a flower or plant that’s undeniably unique. Here are a few of my favorite oddballs from the flower world. Jack-in-the-pulpit Who knew okra had such a beautiful bloom? And notice the stem color–this is a red variety of okra! One of my favorite plants–the smelling orange. Hearts-bursting-with-love Long-spurred violet. Looks like it has one orange fang. See the spur coming out from the back of the flower? There are a bunch of peculiar orchids, but this is one that caught my eye. It rather reminds me of a b-wing fighter from a Star Wars video game.
